THE KCRA 3 NEWSROOM. THANK YOU FOR WAITING WITH US. I CAN'T MATCH THAT RHETORIC. WE HAVE SOME QUESTIONS FOR YOU IN TERMS OF WHAT KIND OF LAWSUITS YOU THINK THE RULINGS ON DOME DOMA AND PROP 8 WILL OPEN UP? I THINK THERE WILL BE A PERIOD OF SORTING THINGS OUT AND SETTLING THINGS DOWN. THE DRAMATIC DEVELOPMENT HERE IS THAT THE SUPREME COURT HAS WIPED OFF THE BOARD A COUPLE OF DEVELOPMENTS. SO PROP 8 IS GONE. AND DOMA, WHICH WAS A REALLY CRUDE EFFORT TO HAMMER THOSE WHO SOUGHT MARRIAGE EQUALITY AND HAMMER STATES THAT MIGHT BE INCLINED TO SUPPORT MARRIAGE EQUALITY IS GONE ON THIS ASPECT. THERE ARE ARE OTHER PARTS OF DOMA NOT DEALT WITH YET. THE POLITICAL PROCESS WILL PROVIDE MOST OF THE ACTION. CONGRESS WILL HAVE IT SAY, HOW SHOULD WE DEAL WITH THE BENEFITS ISSUES? WHAT ABOUT THE SERVICE MEMBER THAT GETS MARRIED TO SOMEONE OF THE SAME SEX IN NEW YORK AND IS REASSIGNED TO OKLAHOMA? THERE ARE A LOT OF ISSUES THAT WILL HAVE TO BE DEALT WITH. I THINK THE ARGUMENTS IN THE SUPREME COURT IN CASES MADE IT CLEAR. IT WILL BE DEALT WITH, I HOPE, IN A WAY THAT'S RATIONAL AND THOUGHTFUL AS OPPOSED TO THE HAMMER FLAILING AWAY IN DOMA AND PROP 8 IS GONE. OF COURSE, THAT WAS A VERY ODD CAMPAIGN AND THERE'S NO DOUBT NOW THAT CALIFORNIA SUPPORTS MARRIAGE EQUALITY. SO THAT ABERRATIONAL ELECTORAL RESULT HAS BEEN WIPED OFF THE BOARDS. PEOPLE WILL ABLE TO GET MARRIED
